If a cheat is a cheat, then a steal is a steal. This page steal brought to you courtesy of Gerakken.

(Been a while since I stole some of your Guardian thunder.)

Edit: Dang! I missed. I guess the trip from Skowbo to Raven's Claw is longer than I thought!

Hello spymaster....

He cheated and he knew he was doing wrong else he would not have removed/changed a mod to avoid the anomalous trip. It is between him and Stardock now. Were they to ask my opinion it would be to reinstate him sans the maso scores and put a fix in to avoid this.


Well, I guess, I should chime in on this once, and then I'm leaving it alone.

I agree exactly with what Terl has said above. Renegade knew what he was doing was wrong and tried to get away with it. I think that is pretty clear. I also agree that no praise should be given for finding, er hacking, a loophole.

I also don't feel Stardock needs to give a full explanation to anyone, and I feel the accused should be given the chance to defend their selves to Stardock. But what ever the outcome, it all should come down to Stardock's decision, it is their Metaverse. Just my opinion.

Personally, I would like to see Loth and Renegade reinstated, after a period of time, but start back at zero with a firm warning to all from Stardock. I feel this is just, not because I condone cheaters, but because I feel a second chance may be warranted since both are long term members of this community.

Terl, you are not alone in your thoughts on this. I'm firmly on your side of the fence. That said, I think we should leave it be as far as Renegade is concerned now.

@Naqmir - get off my case. Haven't you got some exams to do or something. Hell, I might have to try and invent some devious way of playing 60K games in 30 minutes... oh, I already did.

Hey Mag... Was just thinking about you and how I hadn't seen hide nor hair of you for a while. Good to see ya around.

And hello to you, Terl! No, I got the jump gate exits right, just the Phantom developed a bit of engine trouble (read as: internet problems on my end) on the way here. That's what I get for having second hand Yor droids fixing the thing. They spend more time trying to upgrade themselves than making sure my gear works when I need it!

That's why we just waste 'em when we can. Worthless sods, the whole lot

Acctually I just got my temperary lisence.So i've been spending less time on GalCiv and more time driving.And a 30 minutes game wont help.I can get down to about 20-25 minutes.
Oh and almost forgot. BOOM!! Thats 200 games.Almost half of which I've submitted this month.

Naqmir, Magnum go for it boys. We need some new guardian blood in the number 1 position.


Now I'm going to see if I cannot pass some qwerk who is in my way.

                          
#13886  by Citizen Evil Druid - 6/25/2004 9:41:11 PM

What is the point when you only get 3k for a game. At this rate all have to play another 2 games to move up.

                          
#13887  by Citizen Kitantho - 6/25/2004 10:57:16 PM

Thanks for the welcome everyone!

I'm still getting a feel for the game (My attempt at Challenging earlier today ended rather badly ) but after seeing this thread and what a fun-loving bunch everyone is I couldn't wait to join up!

Excellent, I know you will enjoy.

BOOM Finaly sucess. Look at the middle of page 1. 4 Guardians in a row. Looks great.

                          
#13889  by Citizen Evil Druid - 6/26/2004 2:48:57 AM

7 of the top 15 are now guardians. New record perhaps.

                          
#13890  by Citizen Weyrleader - 6/26/2004 3:52:59 AM

Thanks for the welcome everyone!


Welcome, Kitantho. You have joined an exclusive group of gamers of all ages and all intensities

Play to enjoy, seek to help others, and above all HONOR AND JUSTICE to all

Congrats to you, ED, for making the top 15. Only 14 more places to go and you will be Numero uno

Not only to Guardians own almost 50% of the top 15 slots (7 out of 15), but over 50% of the top 5 slots (3 out of 5)

Sorry to hear that, Kit. There are some good pointers in the Strategies forum and when our Leader pokes his head in from his new job, he can give you access to the Guardians Hall where there are good Masso strategies to help you move up.

But, how ever you want to learn and play - play for fun with an emphasis on doing it leaglly (use all the cheese you want that can fit in your own ethics of how you play), but most of all, have fun.

HONOR AND JUSTICE

                            
#13893  by Citizen Weyrleader - 6/26/2004 4:02:35 AM

Oh, one word of warning Kit. Watch out for the undead moose that roams the halls. He is especailly fond of the rear cheaks of Guradians. If you see a moose head on the wall, wack it with you shield and then run like h*ll

My one and only comment on the issue.


well said Damoose.

Oh good Lord.... He did not find a hole, he hacked one


and very blatently.


                          
#13895  by Citizen damoose - 6/26/2004 7:36:35 AM

I suggest you run like double h*ll if you happen to hit the one without the antlers. You can nenver tell If it's me with broken antlers or 'her'. She's faster than I am and you'll end up missing more than cheek meat.



                      
#13896  by Citizen Kitantho - 6/26/2004 10:45:15 AM

Wait, wait... the guy at the recruiting office never said anything about fending off an undead moose! And if damoose's picture is to be believed what a horrifying creature indeed!



                  
#13897  by Citizen Weyrleader - 6/26/2004 11:00:31 AM

the guy at the recruiting office


Well, you are indeed fortunate. No guy in the recruting office when I joined.

Let me warn that there are others that you should keep a lookout for. Spymaster, Capt JT Qwerk, and then there is that Pirate guy who will still everything you have - even while you are looking

Hey Mag... Was just thinking about you and how I hadn't seen hide nor hair of you for a while. Good to see ya around.


I'm still kicking Yor butt occasionally moosey. The events of last weekend put a dent in my enthusiasm, but it looks like I'm going to have to do something about Naqmir pretty soon. Now that the Euro 2004 football championships are coming towards the end I should get a few more games in.

Naqmir, congrats on the 5th gold bar - I honestly didn't think you'd beat me to that one. Great effort.

Congrats to everyone else I've missed congratulating in the past week or so - especially the "close formation display team" moving up page 1 (although I see Weyrleader has broken formation again - shame on you).

Welcome Kitantho - feel free to ask anything you like about the game around here.

                          
#13899  by Citizen Naqmir - 6/26/2004 1:07:18 PM

congrats on the 5th gold bar


hehe i didnt even notice.Now i just need to get rid of this red shield. Only a 29k lead Mag.Until you post another game and get like 50k for it.
